Life got in the way! :)
I had a wonderful visit from my family a while ago and my parents bought me an icecream maker! If you're in the mood for some great homemade ice cream, this recipe is a surefire winner!
1 pint heavy cream
1/2 gallon half and half
1 3/4 cups sugar
vanilla extract
Pour all into ice cream canister.
Use ice and icecream salt to fill the outer edges around the icecream maker. Start and let churn until it becomes hard to churn.
Now is the time to add extras! Chop up candy bars, drizzle peanut butter or chocolate sauce, add fresh fruit like strawberries or blueberries!
I took this to a friend's house for a dinner and all the guests raved about it! Sometimes with homemade ice cream you get that thick heavy cream film on the roof of your mouth. With this recipe, there is no filmy cream! It leaves your mouth refreshed and tastes creamy, not thick!
I've finally gotten used to my schedule at work---nights. It's a bummer I don't get to see many people anymore. I enjoy talking to the guests and giving them a smile.
Sam's little league game is tomorrow! First one of the season! I'm very excited for them. They've been practicing hard and long and I know that they'll do well.
It's a lovely cold and foggy day this morning. I drive the long highway to home from work around 8am. The fog races me down the pavement and sometimes cuts me off, leaving me in a cloud of white uncertainty. Soon the blur dissipates and I am able to make up lost time. The horizon fades into the sky from the mountains. It's a lovely sight. If only I had a cup of coffee and a blanket, I'd sit on the porch to enjoy the morning. Wait--- I do.... *smiles*
Have a lovely day, friend!
